Default F20C Swap into a del Sol?

ok, before you chew me out for not reading the FAQ on the civic swaps on this page, i did read it. and actually found it real helpful and i'm actually thinking about getting a Teg B18C swap but i was curious if it was possible to throw a F20C (S2000) engine inside of of a del Sol. things like modifications that would have to be made...that type of ****. any help on this would really be appreciated, and thanks again for the FAQ!

techy ****!

Honda : JDM F20c-S2000, DOHC VTEC
Horsepower: 247 @ 8300
Torque: 160lbs-ft @ 7500
Redline: 9000rpm
Displacement: 1998cc
Compression: 11.7:1

how deep are you pockets?

Both are capable of being done. One alot cheaper and less time consuming then the other.

money is exactly the object here. the site i'm lookin to buy from has got the F20C for $4095, but i'm guessing thats the harder work, am i right? and then there's the B18C for $4500 which is probably the least amount of work out of the two. but you said cheaper? where should i be goin too for swaps?

Do the F20C!!! That would be one badass delsol, but only if you have TONS of time & money into R&D for it.

With all the money you put into the Sol, you could just buy an entire S though

The F20 will fit after a TON of fabrication. I mean a TON. You'd need to convert the car to rear drive, which is more work than I could even fathom.

the b18c is defiently the only of those two worth your money and if its not the type r b18c then 4500 is a rip off if its just the JDm gsr motor then u shouldnt pay more than like 3400-3500.

Get the jdm k20 Bro. Forget about b18c-r or nonsense F20C swap. It is not worthed at all.
